Acutech solar-powered pumps runs on electricity generated by photovoltaic panels available from collected sunlight as opposed to grid electricity or diesel
run water pumps. The operation of solar powered pumps is more economical mainly due to the lower operation and maintenance costs and has less environmental impact
than pumps powered by an internal combustion engine (ICE). Solar pumps are useful where grid electricity is unavailable and alternative sources (in particular wind)
do not provide sufficient energy. A photovoltaic AGE solar powered DC submersible pump system has three parts A photovolatic AGE solar powered DC submersible pump system has three parts.

The size of the PV-system is directly development on the size of the pump, the amount of water that is required (m3/d) and the solar irradiance available. The purpose of the Pump controller
is two fold. Firstly it matches the output power that the pump receives with the input power available from the solar panels. Secondly, it provides a low voltage protection, whereby the system
is switched, if the voltage is too low or too high for the operating voltage range of the pump. This increase the lifetime up to about 7.5 KW rating, since DC system tend to have overall higher
efficiency levels than AC pumps of a similar size, the costs are reduced as smaller solar panels can be used.

AGE AC (alternating current) Solar powered pump is used with an inverter that changes the direct current from the solar panels into alternating voltage & current for the motor. The supported power
range of inverse extended from 0.15 to 55 kw and can be used for larger irrigation systems.

For the very obvious environment impacts of fossil fuels, including fracking & the greenhouse gas emissions, THE INDUSTRY TOO IS GOOING FOR SOLAR POWERED PUMPING SYSTEMS
